Emerging reports from the UK on Saturday say that Manchester United is set to offer former Chelsea boss, Jose Mourinho a pay that is far above what Pep Guardiola will earn at Manchester City, thereby making the ‘Special One’ the highest paid boss ever at Manchester United and the English Premier League (EPL).
According to The Sun UK Manchester United is ready to offer a whopping £60million deal to the former Chelsea boss in the bid to send Manchester United soaring back to football’s summit.
The Sun UK reports that the contract, including bonuses for titles and cups won, will make Mourinho the highest-paid football manager in history.
The Portuguese boss and his advisors are therefore convinced it is a done deal, which will see him trouser up to £20m a year.
It has long been an ambition of Mourinho’s to take over at Old Trafford. He was stunned when he was overlooked after Alex Ferguson retired in favour of David Moyes. The Special One ended up back at Chelsea where he won the title last season but was sacked on December 17. The Sun had revealed on December 21 that United were immediately in contact with Mourinho.
Van Gaal has seen his regime unravel and is beginning to accept he will be out at the end of the season.
